Customer Reviews
Poor Quality 
2008-07-07
Bought this item for my son. With average use, (2-3 days a week) the vest did not last long. Investing in a more expensive vest would have saved money in the long run. Vest is frayed and torn around most of the seams. Again, poor, poor quality. Not worth the money.
Comfortable & Well Constructed 
2007-08-05
I've been using the Valeo weight vest for about eight weeks during daily, ~60-minute treadmill sessions. I've found it to be a great addition to my workouts as well as a comfortable and well constructed product.
Pros:
a) It fits comfortably with plenty of wide strap adjustments and snap buckles to keep it snug during workouts. This vest does not flap around during exercise.
b) It is well constructed- stitching is still solid, removable sand weights are easy to use, velcro holds weights securely. The vest has some reflective trim too for poor lighting situations on trails and roads. I have a hunch it will outlive my ability to jog with it!
Cons:
a) It's pretty expensive, tho' it should last forever...
b) The high right side, skinny "ipod pocket" is inconveniently placed and hard to open/close. Although the pocket functions, it'd be nice to have a small pocket that's easier to open with one hand and more conveniently located- for keys, headphones, cell, or ipod.
If I were buying this type of workout gear all over again, I'd happily buy this vest.
Not good 2007-07-13
after 10 days of normal walking with the vest....the seam along the shoulder began to tear. I wouldn't recommend this vest to anyone. Svae your money and buy a high end vest that will last.
Great Valeo weight vest 2007-06-07
Excellent vest for the money. Very durable and works great in the pool.
Comfortable but be careful

I've been using the weighted vest now for 5+ weeks. I began with just power walking in it 5 days a week. Then added running of stairs in it for 2 minute intervals and then occasionally jogging in it. Within 2 weeks I noticed a large rip by the chest area on the left hand side. Luckily it is not a structural rip, but does make me nervous that it will not last so I've been reduced to only power walking with the vest 5 days a week and no running at all, as the material does not seem to be able to handle the added stress of bouncing. So if you are only going to be walking in it and not bouncing then this will work great for you.
